35s on stock rims?
is there any fitment issues with putting 35's on the stock rubi rims?
How wide are the stock rims? are they wide enought to fot 12.5" tires?

yeh they work you just have to run your PSI a little bit lower so you dont wear the center out of the tire the tight rim kinda bows the tire so thats why but it looks really clean and has no problems

No issues; I did have to run spacers because of the back spacing on the rim.
I think it looks pretty sweet

Most manufacturers state 8.5" to 11" on 17" rims. 7.5" seems a bit narrow but many are running them. Needs spacers for sure.
The only thing I would worry about is if a good lawyer could make an issue of the narrower-than-spec rim in case something went wrong. But then again I worry too much!

I got my BFG all terrian 315/70/17 on today. They ride pretty good for a big tire. My wife says thats funny it looks like your jeep got bigger. It looks like its going to hit the garage door. I said I did read somewhere on these jeep fourms that the more miles you put on your jeep the springs wear in and it could get taller. She said maybe you should take it to the dealer. It is still under warrenty you know. Yea your right. I got to get it looked at when I find some time. Anyway they fit good with the stock wheels and spidertrax 1.5 wheel spacers.
